1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The soundtrack is ''great''. Particularly [[http://billkiley.bandcamp.com/track/headless-beast "Headless Beast"]], the final boss theme, and [[http://store.flashygoodness.com/track/nihil-descent "Nihil Descent"]], the theme of the bonus level.
2* FanNickname: [[spoiler:Nihil]] is often called "Hell Temple" by fans of ''VideoGame/LaMulana''. [[spoiler:And much like Hell Temple, there's no reward for beating it]].
3* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: [[spoiler:Unlocking the sunglasses]] transforms the normal, depressing text into fourth-wall breaking hilarity.
4* NightmareFuel: Apart from the increasingly disturbing pause messages as you approach the end, [[spoiler:the Architect]], [[spoiler:Nihil]] and especially [[spoiler:the secret ending]] count as this.
5* NoYay: [[spoiler:You and the Architect. In the alternative texts, you're supposed to get a smooch from him for all your hard work. He's a real sweetheart.]]
6* ThatOneAchievement:
7** "Untouchable" is awarded for completing the game in one go with no deaths. Bear in mind, this game is a NintendoHard DeathCourse all the way through that uses DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist just to make it manageable.
8** The innocuously-named "Trinket Collector" is awarded for collecting every trinket in one run. These trinkets only show up in speedrun mode, often in ridiculously out-of-the-way spots that you'd never think to search in, and in order for the achievement to count you also need to speedrun the whole game in five minutes on top of collecting these trinkets. The game might be short, but five minutes is a tall order even without the trinkets.
